PISCES

PISCES UNTIL 2008

No matter how fat you are you have to appear in public now.

Or not only fat. No matter how you feel inside. Even if you feel INSIDE that you're shuffling around in a bathrobe scratching your butt with your hair flying out in every direction, you've got to let the cameras into the bedroom and screw it, so they know, so they see it, so what.

You know that they know everything anyway. I mean, not only the paranoid thing about the government knowing everything you are doing because of your credit cards, but with Pluto in your solar Midheaven, there's no way you can hide away from the world or conceal your inner thoughts, feelings, emotions or self-destructive urges.

And why bother?

The best tactic is to be real and open, because people probe anyway. They're nosy. They have to know what's going on inside your head and inside your life.

That's society today.

You almost have to take a urine test just to walk into the supermarket tehse days, might as well let alll cats out of all bags. It's the smartest political manoeuver.

Like you care.

Part of you doesn't care what anybody thinks or knows because with so much going on in your twelfth house, you're trying to plaster up the wounds before your soul runs out all over the floor.

If all you cared about was your personal life right now, you could turn your back on the whole career/political, professional thing and just stay at home eating ice cream until you explode. But for some reason you can't give them the benefit the satisfaction of quitting.

Pluto in the solar tenth is amazing, because often you get dragged into a job you're not qualified for, dealing with subjects or products you have no connection with and then, in time, you become totally immersed in them and they affect your life much more profoundly and for much longer than you ever dreamed possible.

There is absolutely no way to escape controversy , public scrutiny or examination. If you're a star the paparazzi get you from across the bay while you're hanging out your wash.

If you're just a regular person then you've got some regime under which you are trying to survive. That's the whole weird rub of Pluto in the tenth house, the tyrannical regime, whether it's family, corporate, government or whatever.

The regime, the heartless cold regime. It demands so much of you. It forces you to function even when you tell yourself you cannot. It expects you to perform. It drags the best out of you. It forces you to prove yourself in areas where you never thought you had any interests or capability. It proves to you how much more there is to your ability despite your exhaustion, lack of confidence, self-destructiveness or desire to run away and drink yourself to death.

Although the direction motion of Pluto overhead can indeed be life-threatening in some cases, even healthwise, it forces you to change your life style completely and fight harder than you've ever fought to survive and thrive. It is a test of your faith and your ability to withstand pressure, bad treatment unfair tactics criticism, adverse conditions and come out smelling like a rose,

with your petals just a tad crushed.
